Eleanor Gwyn, mais conhecida como Nell Gwyn (2 de fevereiro de 1650 - 14 de novembro de 1687), foi uma atriz inglesa durante o período da Restauração, famosa por ter sido amante do rei Carlos II de Inglaterra.
Nell Gwyn war eine Schauspielerin und die im englischen Volk beliebteste der vielen Mätressen des englischen Königs Charles II. Von Samuel Pepys wurde sie wegen ihres Witzes und ihrer spitzen Zunge auch Pretty Witty Nell genannt.
‘Pretty, witty Nell’ was perhaps the best known and remembered mistress of King Charles II. She was one of many (there were 13 in all during his lifetime), but she was the least ‘greedy’ of them all.
Nell Gwyn was an English actress and mistress of Charles II, whose frank recklessness, generosity, invariable good temper, ready wit, infectious high spirits, and amazing indiscretions appealed irresistibly to a generation that welcomed in her the living antithesis of Puritanism.
